Hello everyone! I am posting to say that I am hoping to start writing some more sondam one shots soon. I have been feeling inspired and, honestly, I want to escape the mounds of AP bio homework that I have to complete.
I would also like to share some of my own thoughts here-
As many people who may visit or follow this account know, I am a sucker for Sondam. Everything about it brings me joy and it is a huge comfort for me. This may come off as negligent, but I really do not like or understand soudam. I have deeply analyzed it and I cannot see how an "enemies to lovers" plot is applicable--the two hate each other and there is no inclination of them being anything more than classmates! To me, the pair is toxic. Who would want to be in a romantic relationship with the person they despise? Maybe it is the Sonia kinnie in me, or maybe it is just my own stubbornness, but it has become such a discomfort for me that I get agitated with even seeing anything relating to Soudam. It is silly, really. I am getting so worked up over a fictional relationship. Fiction! Typing it out has honestly made me feel ashamed. Soudam provides such a discomfort that I have problems just dealing with it existing, or seeing videos about it on tiktok. I have my personal feelings about Souda. I am choosing to leave them out of this post. But really, deep down, I am a sucker for anything that is canon. Ever since my first fandom seven years ago, I have always taken what the author provided the reader in stride--as they was what they intended for me to take. While Sondam is not explicitly canon, it is heavily implied. I feel like Sondam is the canon option that the fandom was supposed to love, but the fandom refuses to acknowledge the pair and their undeniable connections. I really feel like the fandom hates it because it is hetero, which, in turn, makes me feel unwelcome in the community as a straight woman.
I am not saying u cant ship soudam, I am simply saying that I don't understand it.
